Mary bought a pair of jeans and a sweater. The pair of jeans costs $30 and the sweater costs $35. If the sales tax is 6%, how much did Mary spend in total for the jeans and sweater?

Verified Answer :

price of sweater= 35 dollars
jeans= 30 dollars
price of jeans and sweater = 65 dollars
tax payment = \(\frac{3}{50}\) of 65 dollars
tax payment = \(\frac{39}{10}\)
tax payment = 3.9 dollars
∴total payment= 65 + 3.9 = 68.9 dollars
